Self-explanatory. I have mining, salvaging, and regular laser turrets all with more than 1km range, but I feel that I have to get much, much closer to my target for them to work.
My laser turrets have 6km range, and I have to get within 2km range for them to hit. It's also visibly shorter than it should be. Is this a bug, or were lasers never meant to be more than 1km long? I hope the former...
